In assemblies every year group took part in Remembrance Day commemorations. Students reflected on why we mark Remembrance Day alongside an impeccably observed two-minute silence with the rest of the nation at 11:00am. This year students remembered those from the Commonwealth, who according to a report by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, are forgotten. The report claimed that over 116,000 casualties from WW1, most of whom were of African, Indian or Egyptian origin, ‘were not commemorated by name or possibly not commemorated at all’. “We want to say thank you to all of those who made so many sacrifices for the society we live in today – men and women, young and old, of every faith and ethnicity’. Sandhill View 2021.
